NAME
leaf - Lightweight Editor of Ascii(and more) FilesSYNOPSIS
- leaf [-d dictionary] [+n] [filename]
USAGE
leaf
- is a simple console text file editor, with paragraph word-wrapping and spell checking. leaf is based on the text editor in the
Cone mail reader and composer. leaf opens filename, position the cursor on the first line, or line #n, if specified.
This is not really the best editor for program sources. leaf is meant to be used as a quick editor for writing short notes and memos. As text is typed, words will automatically flow to wrap within a typical 80-character terminal display, even on larger display (due to leaf's heritage as an editor for E-mail messages, which are traditionally formatted to fit an 80-character display). Word wrapping is "lazy": only long text lines are wrapped. Short text lines are not folded together. Individual paragraphs are separated by blank lines of text. Press CTRL-J to optimally rewrap the paragraph under the cursor. The bottom two lines on the screen list which keys to press for other functions.
The -d sets the name of the dictionary used for spell checking (overriding the default spell checking dictionary set by the DICTIONARY environment variable). +n sets the initial cursor position to line #n.
